Whether a random suicide jumper or construction worker impaled with a sharp object, a dough mixer, or a restaurant workers hand in a meat grinder – it’s a technical, specialized rescue – and its happening in every response area throughout the nation. Machinery with moving conveyors, gear driven equipment, and other simple to complex scenarios all need specialized rescue techniques dealing with disassembly, cutting, and lifting/spreading. NFPA 1670, Tools & Special Equipment, Crush Injury/Crush Syndrome & Rescue Operations will be key discussions during this class. This class will include about three hours of classroom, with the remainder of the class practicing these specialized rescue techniques.
